Scanner unknown, an Internet find.

Reprint of the Fawcett original. Different cover, perhaps drawn by Mick Anglo with the characters in the same pose. 36 pages but with that peculiar mix of 2 pages colour, 2 pages b&w.

Comment:	Does anyone know if Captain Video even aired in the UK? Would they know what the Dumont Network was?

Comment:	Not as far as I know, but it would be before my time. However, it may have been known through the 'cliffhanger' serial, from Columbia in 1951, which may have been shown around the time of release in U.K. cinemas as part of the regular Saturday morning shows. The serial is readily available in DVD format from the usual well know outlets here in the U.K.
